Outlet & Switch Installation in Cathay: common questions
Where are GFCI outlets required?
Kitchens, bathrooms, laundry areas, garages, unfinished basements, crawl spaces and outdoors, along with other damp locations.
Can you add an outlet without cutting up the wall?
Usually. We fish cable from a nearby circuit, the basement or the attic and cut only the opening for the new box.
Why does my dimmer buzz or my LEDs flicker?
The dimmer is probably not rated for LED loads. A compatible dimmer usually solves it.
Do you do small outlet jobs in Cathay?
Yes. Call (888) 633-7804.
